I have decided to buy the Roland 2400 unless I can come up with more cash for the 2480.

I also want to buy a few different preamps to use with it since I know the quality of the pres on the Roland are just OK.

I already have a UA Solo 610, I am also looking at the P Solo and even the GT Brick. I want to hook them up more as a line DI into the the Roland pre with a XLR cable.

I looked at all the digital workstations in my price range and although the Roland 2400 can be hooked up to a mouse and screen it did not have the features of the Yamaha.

The Roland did not even have an insert on the pre's.

It also looked like the Roland needed some extra software and cards to do what the Yamaha does.

I have been having a really hard time getting the drums sounding like a normal drum track. Sounds a bit muffled, airy.

Bad mics, with a small room have a lot to do with it. But either way, I'm considering selling my kit (Tama Rockstar), and getting a Roland TD12. Has anyone had any experience recording with these?

can anyone give me some input on this?
how realistic is it? i would like to hear a recording of the synth being used. i am thinking, you could make the midi sound less fake by Micing the speakers.

people get angry with me when i say midi sounds fake (i dont know why... I'm assuming its my ignorance,) so i dont mean to offend anybody 8)

Hi,
Has anyone had the opportunity to test the VG99 against the Pod Xt Pro?

Certainly VG99 has much more editable parameter data, creation of models and so. But what about "tone" quality?

Has anyone worked on a Roland VS Studio before?

I have a VS-1680 and no matter how I mic any instrument or vocal the recorded sound is always uneven, boomy and has no definition (muddy bass / zero crack of the snare / no 's' sound on the vocals). I am using the onboard preamps.

I bought a used Roland EXR-5 and want to use it as a Midi controller to record on a computer with Cubase LE. I will need some driver or software so that the computer recognizes the MIDI info, dont I? Only thing I could find online is this, is this right? Anyone know where the link is? Please help. Thanks Michel

am trying to utilize my Roland R8 MKII Human Rhythm Composer with my DAW and I have the MIDI out of it connected to my MOTU MIDI Timepiece AV USB. I am getting a constant fluttering red led whenever I have it inserted into the MTP. I tried moving it to various ports but still, the same problem.
